How often do we give up on a defense or an attack, grumbling
to ourselves something like:
“oh well, that’s too large to be one of the known dead shapes”
How many groups could I have killed or saved, that I didn’t bother
trying, due to such an attitude ?
Consider this situation:

Suppose white ataris the single
stone inside ?
what happens ? White seems to be pushing from behind. Do the resolute ataris get white
anywhere ? You can send me email telling me what you find. (This problem is number 45 in “The Art of Go Series” Vol.
